Does anything signal warm weather is here to stay, like Honeysuckle?

I love honeysuckle, the fence across the alley from us is thickly covered and the fragrance will knock you down when it is in full bloom.
I don't think I have ever seen the pink variety before, that is pretty..

Mine are yellow I love that smell first thing in the morning. I'll have to keep my eye out for the pink it's very pretty.

The variety I believe it is a 'Gold Flame'.
It was a 'dead-ish' pot of honeysuckle when I took it home and planted it. I didn't know color at all, as it was not blooming and I was just hoping it would live. 
So far it seems very well behaved, and not wild and crazy like the yellows can get.
